CONNECTION TO PLACE

Cog Wild acknowledges that we operate on the traditional territories of tribes of Oregon who have lived in this region since time immemorial. The people were forcibly removed from the land during a series of treaties with the United States in the 1800s. Today, Oregon’s tribal people live in urban and rural areas and on many reservations throughout the state. In the areas we operate, the primary tribes are The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. Learn more about the tribes of Oregon or of your home region at Native Land Digital.

The trails we ride are currently stewarded by the United States Forest Service (USFS) and many non profit trail work organizations including Central Oregon Trail Alliance, Alpine Trail Crew Association, Disciples of Dirt and Greater Oakridge Trail Stewards. Cog Wild pays the USFS 3% percent of revenue earned on the forest and gives back to the land and cycling community through volunteer trail work and donations of money, goods or services to organizations that increase opportunities for all people to recreate outside.

Cog Wild invests in our staff and supports them to be the best guide, coach or driver possible.

I have been out with Cog Wild on their shuttles many times. This year, the price has gone up. I still wont hesitate to go, because its phenomenal riding. This year, there was a bunch of snow at the area (wanoga) we shuttled to. The driver didn't mention it. I know we should be self-sufficient, but a courteous heads-up woulda been tite.

Joined a couple of friends to shuttle in Oakridge with Cog Wild last week and it was awesome. Brian, our shuttle driver was super helpful loading and unloading our bikes, and made sure everyone knew where the trail was — and how to find your way back to the shop at the end. Can't wait to go back and ride with Cog again!

Had a great experience with Cog Wild. We rented bikes, took the shuttle, and used their guide service. The bikes were good, the shuttle left on time, and our guide Wade was great to do a full days ride with. He clearly knew the area and was a wealth of knowledge. He was a pleasure to hang out with.

We did two shuttles with Cog Wild and both were great. We did a 9 AM shuttle to the Alpine trails and then an afternoon shuttle to Dead Mountain. Alpine is an epic shuttle through the primordial forest. Beautiful, fun and challenging though not overly so. Dead Mountain is flowy up top and fast and fun on the bottom. Cog Wild are super chill and very helpful. I would definitely use them again.

My hubby and I use CogWild to shuttle every time we go to Bend to ride. All the employees are veteran riders who know the Bend Trails. They are able to make trail recommendations based on your experience and what you want to get out of the day. Because they also own bikes, you can be assured that they will treat your bike with care as they load and unload. Their whole team is super chill and professional. In all the years we have been shuttling with them, we have had nothing but great service.

The guides were like old friends. Part of our group. Took us to awesome trails that were within our skill level but pushed us to our limits. Always on time and very friendly. Perfect trip. Can’t say enough about how awesome they are. Cheers!!
